Über diesen Titel

A desperate mother. A dubious escort. And a deranged author who won’t leave them alone. Caroline Lindley is determined that her new romance novel will be her best one yet. Fantasy! Formal gowns! Fencing! And, of course, a twentysomething heroine to star in an enemies-to-lovers plot with all of Caroline’s favourite tropes.

But Lady Rosamund Hawkhurst is a thirty-six-year-old widow with two children, her sole focus is facilitating a peace treaty between her adopted nation and her homeland, and she flatly refuses to take the correct approach to there being only one bed. What’s an author to do?

Based on her popular Fantasy Heroine YouTube Shorts series, Jill Bearup’s debut novel brings us the best of worlds both meta- and medieval-inspired. Terry Pratchett aficionados will enjoy the political intrigue paired with convivial, tongue-in-cheek satire. And then there's the slow-burn, fade-to-black romance too…

If you loved Stranger Than Fiction and The Princess Bride, you will soon find yourself cheering on enemies-to-BFFs Rosamund and Caroline as together they learn what it means to be the hero of your own story.

I really liked the story and the interaction between the author and her protagonists. All the banter and between-the-lines serious talking was delightful!

Fourth Wall breaks

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es in ein paar Minuten noch einmal.

The Adventure between Rosamund, the tough widowed heroine who is thrown into a threatening war and is sent to her brother in law to bring peace to two kingdoms. Alongside Captain Collins who is labled as "hot enemy" by her author who in several 4th wall breaking visits and Caroline talks tries to convince her characters of her story to turn the story of political intrigue to a Enemies to Lovers story, but her characters seem to have a mind of their own.
As one of the youtube followers, I was already allowed to see some of the action take place in videos and bond with Rosamund and her andventure.
The book is well written and keeps the reader between excitement and laughter. And the end is a wonderful closure for Rosamund, Leo and their creator, Caroline and her Editor Henry.
A great book.
I hope the author Jill, not Caroline, keeps writing because I think she is a refreshing wind between all the romance books.

4th Wall shaking fun

I can claim that I watched this book happening! And I will not stop telling people to go and read it!

So this is... in some fashion, a social experiment. This whole book was once a skit that said: Yes, I wanted my next heroine to be a bit older — but not two decades!

From that, it turned into a short video series that became the regular morning’s entertainment.
When people started asking, "What book is this from?" Jill always said, "It isn't from any book."
Predictably, the next question was: "When will you make it a book?"

So this is the book — the one Jill Bearup somewhat begrudgingly wrote out of peer pressure!
This is about said two-decades-older heroine trying to ensure the security of herself, her children, and their future — while her author meddles and tries to push the story into a very trope-riddled book.

Sadly (or gladly, for the reader), Rosamund is never inclined to agree with her author.
Leo (her not-so-enemy hot enemy) frequently tells the author to back off.
And the third party in the love triangle, Robin, cheerily informs his author midway through the book that:

a) he is married, and
b) constructed (by her) with entirely too much honour and pride to be the third leg of the love triangle or the villain.

This was a joy — a story that took a genre, turned it on its head, and still managed to say a lot about duty, honesty, and grief.

One crisis at a time!

I loved it from start to finish (even the aknowledgements ;)). It has wit, love and unfullfilled tropes. And Jills voice only helps to bring the scenes and surroundings to life. I already knew the shorts, I absolutely adored the book and I fell hard for the audiobook. Thank you very much!

Perfect for smiles, giggles and lighten up the mood in general

So fun and refreshing. Also very captivating. I laughed many times and could not put it away. Will definitely relisten to it often…Plus cheese

Very pleasant
